New Challenge!

Ok, so I've really been slacking lately with my new healthy lifestyle. My eating hasn't been the best and I haven't been working out much. Last week I did pull a muscle in my neck and it was very painful but it's no excuse to take the whole week off! I was doing better mid-week but I just slacked instead. I also didn't go to the store last week so I didn't have much fruits/veggies to eat and went out for fast food way too much.

But, this week I am getting back on track. I have Fiber One cereal for breakfast w/half a banana and 1% milk. Snack is either pineapple, nuts or Fiber One bar. Lunch is salad that I made (iceberg lettuce, leafy spinach, carrots and radish), 1/2 a sandwich (Sara lee low sodium turkey, colby cheese, mustard and wheat bread) and some baby carrots. Last night for dinner I made tilapia, brown rice and corn. The tilapia didn't turn out too well. I think I might have cooked it too long because it was a little tough and there wasn't much taste to it either. I did put some italian seasoned bread crumbs and little parm cheese on it but I just didn't enjoy it. If anyone has a great recipe for tilapia please feel free to share! Anyways, I ate most of it and all the corn but I also had trouble with the rice so I didn't eat any of it. I did a 20 min resistance band video from www.sparkpeople.com and also took the dog for a quick 20min walk last night! Had a few strawberries then went to bed.

I do have some major motivation for the next 60 days thanks to Tony, The Anti-Jared, as he has created a challenge to all to take a pic of yourself then in 60 days take another to see how much you've changed and I've decided to give it a try. I really need to step it up! I have also been doing a Biggest Loser Challenge on one of my teams at Sparkpeople. This week's challenge is strength training so I need to get in as much of that as possible. So, I will be posting my new pic on this blog tonight as today will be day 1 of the Missouri 60 Challenge from Tony - Wish me luck!
